Phil Peterson And Homecoming
Committee Will Have Gil Dodds
Gil Dodds, former world's record holding miler and currently a
coach at Wheaton college, headlines the full weekend of Homecoming
activities as banquet speaker.
For the first time this year
Homecoming activities will spread
over a three day period, Oct. 17-
19, with the inclusion of an early
church service Sunday morning.
Bob Mantzke's quartet will be
featured at the Friday night talent
program.
'Other activities will include the
traditional coronation ceremonies
of Friday evening, the judging of
floats about noon on Saturday, the
big parade which will end at Ham-line
stadium, and the Homecoming
game with Northland to be played
at Hamline Saturday afternoon.
Phil Peterson was approved
chairman of the Homecoming com-mittee
by the Student Senate last
Monday evening.
Campus Buildings
Are Improved
Numerous improvements have
been made on the campus this
summer.
The main entrance to the library
was redecorated and a new step
was put on the side entrance. The
stack room has been painted and
12 individual study desks were in-stalled
downstairs. A fan was put
in the roof to cool the study area.
The language room in the lib-rary
is being finished with 16 in-dividual
soundproof booths being
installed.

Station KVACY, Bethel's ham
radio station, went on the air early
this week, stated Francis Wheeler,
faculty advisor. The station is op-erated
by members of the Bethel
Amateur Radio Club, or as it is
informally known, BARC.
This station will be one of a
nationwide network that handles
messages and makes communica-tion
services available to mission-aries.
In addition to participation in
the network, BARC hopes to use
the station to communicate with
Conference Baptist missionaries.

Welcome Nine
Instructors
Nine new members have been
added to Bethel faculty this year.
Four of these, confirmed over the
summer, were not announced in
spring issues of the CLARION.
Robert Nelson, a twin-city artist,
will be teaching courses in design
in the fine arts department. Mr.
Nelson operates his own studio in
the Twin Cities.
G. Linwood Barney will teach,
anthropology in the social science
department. Mr. Barney is also an
instructor at St. Paul Bible col-lege.
Jerome Thompson, a football
all-American, will be teaching phy-sical
education courses. Mr. Thomp-son
played football at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin.
Mrs. Olaf Olsen, wife of the
new history professor, will assist
on a part-time basis in the sem-inary
as instructor in religious
education.
Those announced in the spring
issues were Jeannine Bohlmeyer,
English instructor; Robert Mounce,
Ph.D., assistant professor of Bible
and Greek; Julius Whittinger,
music instructor; Olaf Olsen, Ph.D.,
associate professor of history; and
Lawrence Starkey, associate pro-fessor
of philosophy.
Enrollment Figures
Figures just released from the
college office indicate that the
total enrollment of the college this
year will be roughly comparable
to last year's enrollment. There
are approximately 200 freshmen
registered and 315-320 upperclass-men.

take some major fund-raising but
hopes are high on soon obtaining

A novice license is required to
operate the transmitter. Training
is now being given to all BARC
members who do not have licenses.
Certain other operations can be
carried on without a license. These
include such BARC projects as re-cording
foreign language broad-casts
for the language depart-ment.
The BARC constitution states a
dual purpose. Not only will the
club assist, by its various re-sources,
to serve the interests of
the school and Conference mission-ary
endeavor, but it will also work
to develop mature Christian living

Barney, instructor in anthro-pology

the speaker.
F.M.F. programs this year will
be aimed at presenting the gen-eral
missionary duties of all Chris-tians
rather than restricting the
approach to missionary endeavor
in other countries, according to
president Roger Erickson.
Another activity under F.M.F.
auspices is being directed by Ed
Tegenfeldt, who is in charge of
foreign student relations.
Ed stated that a more individual
approach to the problem would be
tried this year. It is hoped that
each Bethel student will become
acquainted with a foreign student
and maintain this friendship
throughout the year, Ed added.
To further this goal two pro-grams
have been planned: an in-ternational
dinner; and a musical
festival, which is scheduled for
next spring.
Planning is now underway for
occasional coffee hours, sponsored
by married couples, which will en-able

Several issues of major import-ance
have again presented them-selves
to the attention of various
persons in authority. While offi-cial
action is pending in most
cases, it might be of some value
to present these to the student
body so that they may know the
problems confronting the admini-stration.
Currently under discussion is the
problem of parking space for the
student and faculty cars. While

each time were able to return to
the land and the people so close
to their hearts.
They labored among the Uduks
in the Sudan for 18 months before

people to read, preached the Word,

intense heat.

the problem is not acute at the
present, it will be drastically in-creased
when the seminary stu-dents
arrive toward the end of this
month.
Another situation which is a
constant source of perplexity is
the relationship between the school
and the neighborhood. Not infre-quently
neighbors have called in to
complain of undue noise and com-motion
around the dormitories at
night or to request that students
and death nearly took the lives of
their children Whom they loved
so much. Their youngest child was
born without a left hand, yet
through all of these experiences
they trusted the Lord and rejoiced
in their salvation.
The fruit of their labors is the
evidence of the work which they
have done to bring the light to so
many. If you desire to have a
deeper appreciation of missions,

refrain from parking their cars in
front of the homes bordering the
campus.
Further complication comes from
the poster situation. A practical
solution is needed for on-campus
advertising, both for campus acti-vities
and for events in the Twin
Cities.
Much discussion of late has cen-tered
around the difficulties and
inequities of the present organiza-tion
of the student association. It
has become increasingly apparent
that the activities conducted by
the Student Senate do not cor-respond
to the interests of the
seminarians; nor do the semin-arians
have the necessary time to
participate in sufficient activities
to actually benefit from belonging
to this association.
Hi Bethelites,
Welcome Back
by Dwight Jessup
The advent of another school
year at Bethel brings a multitude
of welcomes, greetings, and both
new and revived friendships. Tak-ing
such forms as freshman re-treats,
faculty and dormitory re-ceptions,
coffee shop acquaintances
and even the paradoxical welcome
of traditional green beanies and
initiation, these September proce-dures
are geared to making you,
the Bethel students, truly welcome
on the campus.
This is a welcome to more than
just seven buildings and two square
blocks. It is more than just in-tellectual
learning and eventual
bachelor degrees. It is a welcome
to you as a student to develop
yourself to the fullest in every
way.
Your role as an individual stu-dent
at Bethel is a most important
one. You have the chance to use
these college facilities for intell-ectual
advancement, spiritual
growth, and leadership training.
Providing these opportunities,
Bethel can be as profitable for you
as you allow it to be.
In this way, Bethel welcomes
you, the student, as an important
part and eventual product of its
facilities and opportunities. May
your experiences here become
meaningful and profitable in your
endeavor for a successful Christian
life.
Opportunities nlimited;
Leadership Aim Of Bethel
College is an experience with profound implications for growth
and development which can be completely destroyed or lost if an
individual foolishly squanders the opportunities constantly awaiting
his decisions. There are many follies that an entice the unsuspecting
ones: some are the habits and attitudes which individuals bring with
them to school; others are created by various situations which arise
during the school year. Either can be destructive to the college exper-ience;
either can make the years spent at college a complete waste of
time (one's own), money (usually parents'), and effort (probably the
instructors' who are trying hard to stimulate growth, development, and
learning).
The opportunities are unlimited; so are the responsibilities. When
graduation exercises are over there will be no one to blame if any
person is 'missing from the ranks, no one that is except the individual
himself.
And even being among the graduates does not preclude the pos-sibility
that the college experience was largely invalid, that the years
spent here could have been spent as profitably in the army, back on
the farm, or working in a factory. College is a challenge. It demands
total effort. And one must participate in order to achieve.
Two areas of overwhelming potential are the social and the intell-ectual.
Social activity is largely s -perpetuating; but much effort
must be expended in maintaining an e program. Yet many peo-ple
fail to develop the awareness a scrimination in social situa-tions
which should be the mark of a college person.
Intellectual development will not come as readily to some, yet
this is the essence of the educational process. To develop a sense of
intellectual awareness, critical evaluation, as well as faculties of
understanding, perception, and judgment should be the desire of every
individual who makes this campus his abode for the coming year. In
this way a person will approach the goal of mature intellectual curiosity
and responsible Christian leadership which is the aim of this liberal
arts institution.

Upperclassmen Beware!
Freshmen Are Clued In
Well, Freshman, you have arrived. You now belong to our organi-zation,
and by so being you will be made acquainted with the written
law. I 'have taken it upon myself, however, to slide in a few hints about
extra-legal matters that might help you to ground in smoothly.
You students who speak foreign languages should be happy to
learn that there are clubs on campus devoted entirely to alien jabbering
—German, Spanish, Swedish. We even have a Canadian club formed
along such lines as to allow a release for you students from the north
who will constantly have to speak American in your daily scholastic
contacts.
I am sure that among the enlisted freshman girls there are •those
who have the ability to lead cheers. In the past, it has been sufficient
to don a uniform while only being able to recite the words "fight,"
"yeah," and "team," and the phrases "hold that line," and "block that
kick." But we want you to know that this year the student body which
has long suffered through this creeping drivel is rebelling, and we want
you freshmen with new and bold action to lead us out of the cheerless
desert.
Do you dread the thought of professors ? Do you toss and turn at
night, nerves all a-jangle ? . . . Let me drop a word on how to distin-guish
the tyrant tutor from the non-tyrant. Note the manner of walk—
he 'who dashes hither and thither . . . don't worry about him; he's new
here; innocent; as yet untouched. But he who walks with the slow walk,
the leisurely walk; beware that one. For he has been here long, and he
has tried all methods and has chosen the most effective for the sub-duing
of the will, the outpouring of the homework.
I hope that I have been of some help to you. I leave you now to
struggle for yourself, with the wish that you, Freshman, will conquer.

Two practices a day, six days a

It's that time of year again.
Everyone is just itching to get
their first bruise or sprained ankle,
not to speak of a big glorious vic-tory
under their belts.
Entering the locker room, I was
greeted with pleasant sounds of
bright, happy fellows getting all
set for the head-banging, glorious
sport of football.
"Man, am I glad that blond guy
passed his entrance exams."
"Hey, coach, my helmet ain't

On Saturday, Sept. 18, the Hib-bing
J. C. Cardinals defeated the
Bethel college Royals by a score
of 20-8 in a night contest at Hib-bing,
Minn.
The victors scored their touch-downs
in the first, second, and
fourth quarters on a run, a pass,
and a recovered fumble, respec-tively.
The third extra point at-tempt
failed. Bethel scored its lone
touchdown when they blocked a
Hibbing punt from the Hibbing
19 yard line. A wild scramble ensu-ed
during which at least 3 players
had partial possession of the ball.
It all ended with Del Hudson of
Bethel lying on the ball in the end
zone.
The other two points were
awarded to the Royals on a fumble
by Hibbing on the Hil):,Ing 27.
With third down and two yards to
go for the first down the Hibbing
quarterback attempted a pitch out
to one of his halfbacks skirting his
own right end. A fumble resulted
and after a slight scramble and
two or three tackles, blocks, re-coveries,
and fumbles the ball lay
apparently in the possession of
Bethel's Stu Luckman who was
lying in the end zone.
This was not quite so apparent
to one of the officials who signaled
a safety. One of his fellow referees
signaled a touchdown. The third
official didn't signal or say any-thing.
So Bethel was awarded,
what some of the spectators term-ed
a "two-point touchdown."
Perhaps the most sparkling play
Good Year?
Line Play Held
To Be Critical
It is hoped that the addition of
veterans Wayne Carlson and Bob
Reynolds to the Bethel football
squad will eliminate a definite
weakness.
This weakness, which could have
disasterous consequences, seems to
lie in the lack of depth in the line
as was so clearly demonstrated in
the Hibbing game when two start-ing
linemen had to leave the game
due to injuries.

Some more fine running was
done by Paul Evans, Bethel's full-back,
who bucked into the line
for a total of 63 yards.

Dean Announces Program Nuclear Power
Of Christian Service Teams Will Be Topic
For Debaters
Edgren Is Site Of Bethel
Social Gathering - Coketails
"Already requests are coming
in," says Clifford V. Anderson,
dean of students, in reference to
plans for this year's Christian ser-vice
teams.
In order to fill these requests
Christian service team tryouts will
be held in the chapel on Sept. 22
and 23 at 6:30 p.m.
Due to the BWA banquet the
girls will meet for placement on
Monday evening; the men will at-tend
a placement session on Tues-day.
Q. T. Smith and Julius Whittin-ger,
of the speech and music de-partments
respectively, will be
working closely with the teams.
Richard Olson, member of the re-ligious
council, will also assist.
Dean Anderson termed the even-ings
for placement both "a search
for potential as well as an oppor-tunity
to identify students with
developed talents."
"Plan on attending the place-ment
sessions," he added. "Partici-pation
on a Christian service team
is rewarding both in terms of edu-cation
and service."
New Missions
Goal This Year
Bob Ricker, religious council
chairman, announced that the goal
of the Friday missionary offering
has been increased to $7,200 for
the year. F.M.F. president, Roger
Erickson, is in charge of promoting
the offering.
This year three members of the
council will be on the chapel and
special weeks committee. They are
Bob Ricker, Bruce Leafblad, and
a girl to be chosen from the coun-cil.
The council meets weekly to plan
Monday chapels and five special
week-end events throughout the
year. The first of these events will
be Oct. 24.
The inter-collegiate debaters will
have their second meeting next
Monday at 7 p.m.
At their last meeting Q. T.
Smith, debate coach, announced
that the question for this year is,
Resolved: that further development
of nuclear weapons should be pro-hibited
by international agree-ment?
The discussion question is:
How can we improve our relations
with South America ?
According to Mr. Smith there
will be an oratory contest at
Bethel this fall. The topic for ora-tion
will be, "Can Nuclear Wea-pons
Prevent War ?" There will
be a $25 prize given for the best
oration. Mr. Smith said that the
speech should be from 5 to 7 min-utes
in length and that either side
may be taken.
Ya Don't Say
Once upon a time there was a
man who sold hot dogs. The hot
dogs he sold were very good and
he would stand by the side of
the road and call out, "Buy a
hot dog, mister ?"
And the people bought.
The man put up signs along
the road telling of the good hot
dogs he was selling. The man
had to buy a big new stove to
handle the increasing business.
Finally he called his son to come
and help him sell his hot dogs.
When the man's son came to
work he saw how his father
sold hot dogs and he was amaz-ed.
"Dad," he said, "Don't you
realize there is a great depres-sion
upon us ?"
"The world situation is terri-ble,
the domestic scene is hope-less,
and business is just awful !"
Now, the man had been so
busy selling hot dogs that he
hadn't been listening to the
radio or reading the newspapers.
But when he heard what his son
had said, he thought he had bet-ter
start keeping up with the
news.
And he found out his son was
right, so he took down his signs
and no longer bothered to stand
by the side of the road and call
out, "Buy a hot dog, Mister ?"
His business fell off and he
sent back the new stove he had
bought. His business became less
and less, and the man turned to
his son and said, "You were
right son. We are in the middle
of a great depression."
Coketails will be served in Ed-gren
lounge Friday, Sept. 26, Stu
Luckman, social council chairman
announced.
This will replace the upperclass-men
variety originally scheduled
for this date and cancelled because
the football team is leaving for
Watertown, Wis. the day before,
for the Northwestern game.
Other fall events on the social
calendar include the banquet and
mixers.
Jerome Thompson, former foot-ball
all-American at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin, will speak at
the fall banquet Oct. 3.
Although confirmation has not
been received yet, Biltmore Inn
will probably be the site. The ban-quet
will be semi-formal.
Mixers will follow the Oct. 4
and 11 games with North Park
and Mason City. Stu said the mixer
after the Mason City game will
be a bermuda mixer.
The social council this year hopes
that attendance at social events
will approve this year, Stu added.
If the proposed budget is ap-proved
by the Student Senate the
social council will be enabled to
assume greater financial responsi-bility
for social events. In previous
years the major portion of the
cost was met by ticket sales.

Phil Peterson And Homecoming
Committee Will Have Gil Dodds
Gil Dodds, former world's record holding miler and currently a
coach at Wheaton college, headlines the full weekend of Homecoming
activities as banquet speaker.
For the first time this year
Homecoming activities will spread
over a three day period, Oct. 17-
19, with the inclusion of an early
church service Sunday morning.
Bob Mantzke's quartet will be
featured at the Friday night talent
program.
'Other activities will include the
traditional coronation ceremonies
of Friday evening, the judging of
floats about noon on Saturday, the
big parade which will end at Ham-line
stadium, and the Homecoming
game with Northland to be played
at Hamline Saturday afternoon.
Phil Peterson was approved
chairman of the Homecoming com-mittee
by the Student Senate last
Monday evening.
Campus Buildings
Are Improved
Numerous improvements have
been made on the campus this
summer.
The main entrance to the library
was redecorated and a new step
was put on the side entrance. The
stack room has been painted and
12 individual study desks were in-stalled
downstairs. A fan was put
in the roof to cool the study area.
The language room in the lib-rary
is being finished with 16 in-dividual
soundproof booths being
installed.

Amateur Radio Club, or as it is
informally known, BARC.
This station will be one of a
nationwide network that handles
messages and makes communica-tion

In addition to participation in
the network, BARC hopes to use
the station to communicate with
Conference Baptist missionaries.

Welcome Nine
Instructors
Nine new members have been
added to Bethel faculty this year.
Four of these, confirmed over the
summer, were not announced in
spring issues of the CLARION.
Robert Nelson, a twin-city artist,
will be teaching courses in design
in the fine arts department. Mr.
Nelson operates his own studio in
the Twin Cities.
G. Linwood Barney will teach,
anthropology in the social science
department. Mr. Barney is also an
instructor at St. Paul Bible col-lege.
Jerome Thompson, a football
all-American, will be teaching phy-sical
education courses. Mr. Thomp-son
played football at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin.
Mrs. Olaf Olsen, wife of the
new history professor, will assist
on a part-time basis in the sem-inary
as instructor in religious
education.
Those announced in the spring
issues were Jeannine Bohlmeyer,
English instructor; Robert Mounce,
Ph.D., assistant professor of Bible
and Greek; Julius Whittinger,
music instructor; Olaf Olsen, Ph.D.,
associate professor of history; and
Lawrence Starkey, associate pro-fessor
of philosophy.
Enrollment Figures
Figures just released from the
college office indicate that the
total enrollment of the college this
year will be roughly comparable
to last year's enrollment. There
are approximately 200 freshmen
registered and 315-320 upperclass-men.

take some major fund-raising but
hopes are high on soon obtaining

A novice license is required to
operate the transmitter. Training
is now being given to all BARC
members who do not have licenses.
Certain other operations can be
carried on without a license. These
include such BARC projects as re-cording
foreign language broad-casts
for the language depart-ment.
The BARC constitution states a
dual purpose. Not only will the
club assist, by its various re-sources,
to serve the interests of
the school and Conference mission-ary
endeavor, but it will also work
to develop mature Christian living

F.M.F. programs this year will
be aimed at presenting the gen-eral
missionary duties of all Chris-tians
rather than restricting the
approach to missionary endeavor
in other countries, according to
president Roger Erickson.
Another activity under F.M.F.
auspices is being directed by Ed
Tegenfeldt, who is in charge of
foreign student relations.
Ed stated that a more individual
approach to the problem would be
tried this year. It is hoped that
each Bethel student will become
acquainted with a foreign student
and maintain this friendship
throughout the year, Ed added.
To further this goal two pro-grams
have been planned: an in-ternational
dinner; and a musical
festival, which is scheduled for
next spring.

Several issues of major import-ance
have again presented them-selves
to the attention of various
persons in authority. While offi-cial
action is pending in most
cases, it might be of some value
to present these to the student
body so that they may know the
problems confronting the admini-stration.
Currently under discussion is the
problem of parking space for the
student and faculty cars. While

each time were able to return to
the land and the people so close
to their hearts.
They labored among the Uduks
in the Sudan for 18 months before
they made their first convert. They
translated parts of the Bible into

people to read, preached the Word,
and gave medical care. They suf-fered
through tropical storms and
intense heat.

the problem is not acute at the
present, it will be drastically in-creased
when the seminary stu-dents
arrive toward the end of this
month.
Another situation which is a
constant source of perplexity is
the relationship between the school
and the neighborhood. Not infre-quently
neighbors have called in to
complain of undue noise and com-motion
around the dormitories at
night or to request that students
and death nearly took the lives of
their children Whom they loved
so much. Their youngest child was
born without a left hand, yet
through all of these experiences
they trusted the Lord and rejoiced
in their salvation.
The fruit of their labors is the
evidence of the work which they
have done to bring the light to so
many. If you desire to have a
deeper appreciation of missions,

which pulsates with love for God
and man.
refrain from parking their cars in
front of the homes bordering the
campus.
Further complication comes from
the poster situation. A practical
solution is needed for on-campus
advertising, both for campus acti-vities
and for events in the Twin
Cities.
Much discussion of late has cen-tered
around the difficulties and
inequities of the present organiza-tion
of the student association. It
has become increasingly apparent
that the activities conducted by
the Student Senate do not cor-respond
to the interests of the
seminarians; nor do the semin-arians
have the necessary time to
participate in sufficient activities
to actually benefit from belonging
to this association.
Hi Bethelites,
Welcome Back
by Dwight Jessup
The advent of another school
year at Bethel brings a multitude
of welcomes, greetings, and both
new and revived friendships. Tak-ing
such forms as freshman re-treats,
faculty and dormitory re-ceptions,
coffee shop acquaintances
and even the paradoxical welcome
of traditional green beanies and
initiation, these September proce-dures
are geared to making you,
the Bethel students, truly welcome
on the campus.
This is a welcome to more than
just seven buildings and two square
blocks. It is more than just in-tellectual
learning and eventual
bachelor degrees. It is a welcome
to you as a student to develop
yourself to the fullest in every
way.
Your role as an individual stu-dent
at Bethel is a most important
one. You have the chance to use
these college facilities for intell-ectual
advancement, spiritual
growth, and leadership training.
Providing these opportunities,
Bethel can be as profitable for you
as you allow it to be.
In this way, Bethel welcomes
you, the student, as an important
part and eventual product of its
facilities and opportunities. May
your experiences here become
meaningful and profitable in your
endeavor for a successful Christian
life.
Opportunities nlimited;
Leadership Aim Of Bethel
College is an experience with profound implications for growth
and development which can be completely destroyed or lost if an
individual foolishly squanders the opportunities constantly awaiting
his decisions. There are many follies that an entice the unsuspecting
ones: some are the habits and attitudes which individuals bring with
them to school; others are created by various situations which arise
during the school year. Either can be destructive to the college exper-ience;
either can make the years spent at college a complete waste of
time (one's own), money (usually parents'), and effort (probably the
instructors' who are trying hard to stimulate growth, development, and
learning).
The opportunities are unlimited; so are the responsibilities. When
graduation exercises are over there will be no one to blame if any
person is 'missing from the ranks, no one that is except the individual
himself.
And even being among the graduates does not preclude the pos-sibility
that the college experience was largely invalid, that the years
spent here could have been spent as profitably in the army, back on
the farm, or working in a factory. College is a challenge. It demands
total effort. And one must participate in order to achieve.
Two areas of overwhelming potential are the social and the intell-ectual.
Social activity is largely s -perpetuating; but much effort
must be expended in maintaining an e program. Yet many peo-ple
fail to develop the awareness a scrimination in social situa-tions
which should be the mark of a college person.
Intellectual development will not come as readily to some, yet
this is the essence of the educational process. To develop a sense of
intellectual awareness, critical evaluation, as well as faculties of
understanding, perception, and judgment should be the desire of every
individual who makes this campus his abode for the coming year. In
this way a person will approach the goal of mature intellectual curiosity
and responsible Christian leadership which is the aim of this liberal
arts institution.

Upperclassmen Beware!
Freshmen Are Clued In
Well, Freshman, you have arrived. You now belong to our organi-zation,
and by so being you will be made acquainted with the written
law. I 'have taken it upon myself, however, to slide in a few hints about
extra-legal matters that might help you to ground in smoothly.
You students who speak foreign languages should be happy to
learn that there are clubs on campus devoted entirely to alien jabbering
—German, Spanish, Swedish. We even have a Canadian club formed
along such lines as to allow a release for you students from the north
who will constantly have to speak American in your daily scholastic
contacts.
I am sure that among the enlisted freshman girls there are •those
who have the ability to lead cheers. In the past, it has been sufficient
to don a uniform while only being able to recite the words "fight,"
"yeah," and "team," and the phrases "hold that line," and "block that
kick." But we want you to know that this year the student body which
has long suffered through this creeping drivel is rebelling, and we want
you freshmen with new and bold action to lead us out of the cheerless
desert.
Do you dread the thought of professors ? Do you toss and turn at
night, nerves all a-jangle ? . . . Let me drop a word on how to distin-guish
the tyrant tutor from the non-tyrant. Note the manner of walk—
he 'who dashes hither and thither . . . don't worry about him; he's new
here; innocent; as yet untouched. But he who walks with the slow walk,
the leisurely walk; beware that one. For he has been here long, and he
has tried all methods and has chosen the most effective for the sub-duing
of the will, the outpouring of the homework.
I hope that I have been of some help to you. I leave you now to
struggle for yourself, with the wish that you, Freshman, will conquer.

'the Chuck-Whole

Heads Phy. Ed Leaves Horses
by C. N. Elvin
All-American, from the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin, Jerome "Jerry"
Thompson is to be at the helm of
the physical education department
at Bethel this fall.
Jerry, who is attending Luther
seminary and working as youth
pastor at Hope Lutheran church, is
credited as being one of the state
of Wisconsin's best basketball and
football officials, not to mention
It's the same old
knows, it might be
—let's hope so. The story a quote
from Lundin, "We're much better
than last year."
To begin with, there are at pre-sent
28 players an the team roster.
Toil began Sept. 2 with 22 pros-pects
out which is about double
the man power the team started
with last year.
Two practices a day, six days a
week, have whipped the boys into
pretty fair shape. A great deal of
weight has been shed and the boys
are down to the muscle now.
Lundin is pleased with the first
eleven and says that the boys have
learned their positions well. Ex-cept
for the leg injuries of ends
"O.K., men — now get this
through your heads--you're going
to like this game. This game is
fun. All we want out of you is
plenty of hard work and your best
efforts all the time. Seriously,
you'll like it."
It's that time of year again.
Everyone is just itching to get
their first bruise or sprained ankle,
not to speak of a big glorious vic-tory
under their belts.
Entering the locker room, I was
greeted with pleasant sounds of
bright, happy fellows getting all
set for the head-banging, glorious
sport of football.
"Man, am I glad that blond guy
passed his entrance exams."
"Hey, coach, my helmet ain't
right, I can't wear my new foot-ball
glasses with this thing." "All
right, Nerstad, just take it easy.
We'll work it out, we'll work it
out. You're not going to that wed-ding
unless you fly."
"Coach, how about some shorts?
How about some girdle pads that
fit?" "Woodall, I told you we

Olaf before transferring to the
University of Wisconsin.
He taught and coached at Nee-nah
high school and Augustana
college in Rock Island, Ill., before
taking over and leading Ripon col-lege
to a conference title. He coach-ed
them into being the second
highest scoring small college team
in the nation.
Dave Gordh, a freshman from
Ramsey high school, has proven
valuable. He runs very well and is
a tricky passing threat as he
passes with either hand.

Naughton, two veterans, are look-ing
better than ever. They both
played exceptional defensive ball
in the Hamline scrimmage.

"The practice begins with a few
short laps. Man, these are the
longest short laps I've ever seen."
"Oh, I'm dead, I'm beyond re-pairs.
I must be."
After your muscles are stretch-ed
beyond their limit, your legs
stiff, 'head dizzy—practice starts.
When you think that you can
never move again, you hear the
sweet words, "all right get out
there and let's run some plays."
"Ya can run 'through the wrong
slat, Sension."
"Come on pretty boy, hit me
with a long one."
As evening shadows fall over a
haggard bunch of humans, you
hear the only sensible words all
day. "That's all men. Take a few
laps and hit the showers."
Your muscles are aching, all of
them. Why do you go on? It's just
something down inside of you that
makes you love the sport and the
satisfaction of a job well done.
Go to it men.

On Saturday, Sept. 18, the Hib-bing
J. C. Cardinals defeated the
Bethel college Royals by a score
of 20-8 in a night contest at Hib-bing,
Minn.
The victors scored their touch-downs
in the first, second, and
fourth quarters on a run, a pass,
and a recovered fumble, respec-tively.
The third extra point at-tempt
failed. Bethel scored its lone
touchdown when they blocked a
Hibbing punt from the Hibbing
19 yard line. A wild scramble ensu-ed
during which at least 3 players
had partial possession of the ball.
It all ended with Del Hudson of
Bethel lying on the ball in the end
zone.
The other two points were
awarded to the Royals on a fumble
by Hibbing on the Hil):,Ing 27.
With third down and two yards to
go for the first down the Hibbing
quarterback attempted a pitch out
to one of his halfbacks skirting his
own right end. A fumble resulted
and after a slight scramble and
two or three tackles, blocks, re-coveries,
and fumbles the ball lay
apparently in the possession of
Bethel's Stu Luckman who was
lying in the end zone.
This was not quite so apparent
to one of the officials who signaled
a safety. One of his fellow referees
signaled a touchdown. The third
official didn't signal or say any-thing.
So Bethel was awarded,
what some of the spectators term-ed
a "two-point touchdown."
Perhaps the most sparkling play
Good Year?
Line Play Held
To Be Critical
It is hoped that the addition of
veterans Wayne Carlson and Bob
Reynolds to the Bethel football
squad will eliminate a definite
weakness.
This weakness, which could have
disasterous consequences, seems to
lie in the lack of depth in the line
as was so clearly demonstrated in
the Hibbing game when two start-ing
linemen had to leave the game
due to injuries.

and ran beautifully with the help
of one or two well-placed blocks

total of 50 yards.
Some more fine running was
done by Paul Evans, Bethel's full-back,
who bucked into the line

Former athletic director Del Ray Peterson is at present teaching
junior high school courses in North St. Paul . . . No. 1 quarterback Ken

he called RH flank left drive PASSION on three instead of 22 PASS on
three. Hope they were successful in whatever they decided to do . . .
Gerald Healy, man in charge of cross country, has given the come hither
call to all guys interested in running this fall . . . If the officials at the
Hibbing game had been as alert as Dave Gordh on his 50 yard kick-off
return the results may have come out differently . . . Three of Bethel's
four home games will be played under the lights at Hamline field. . . .
It's a new treat for Bethel co-eds to look at green grass in the center of
campus. Credit goes to the acquisition of a fairgrounds practice lot for
the football players . . . Jack McNaughton, the Royals' big end, has
taken up with the birds, his Studebaker sprouted wings last weekend.
Explanations can be acquired from the owner . . . Hawaii Kai III with

Dean Announces Program Nuclear Power
Of Christian Service Teams Will Be Topic
For Debaters
Edgren Is Site Of Bethel
Social Gathering - Coketails
"Already requests are coming
in," says Clifford V. Anderson,
dean of students, in reference to
plans for this year's Christian ser-vice
teams.
In order to fill these requests
Christian service team tryouts will
be held in the chapel on Sept. 22
and 23 at 6:30 p.m.
Due to the BWA banquet the
girls will meet for placement on
Monday evening; the men will at-tend
a placement session on Tues-day.
Q. T. Smith and Julius Whittin-ger,
of the speech and music de-partments
respectively, will be
working closely with the teams.
Richard Olson, member of the re-ligious
council, will also assist.
Dean Anderson termed the even-ings
for placement both "a search
for potential as well as an oppor-tunity
to identify students with
developed talents."
"Plan on attending the place-ment
sessions," he added. "Partici-pation
on a Christian service team
is rewarding both in terms of edu-cation
and service."
New Missions
Goal This Year
Bob Ricker, religious council
chairman, announced that the goal
of the Friday missionary offering
has been increased to $7,200 for
the year. F.M.F. president, Roger
Erickson, is in charge of promoting
the offering.
This year three members of the
council will be on the chapel and
special weeks committee. They are
Bob Ricker, Bruce Leafblad, and
a girl to be chosen from the coun-cil.
The council meets weekly to plan
Monday chapels and five special
week-end events throughout the
year. The first of these events will
be Oct. 24.
The inter-collegiate debaters will
have their second meeting next
Monday at 7 p.m.
At their last meeting Q. T.
Smith, debate coach, announced
that the question for this year is,
Resolved: that further development
of nuclear weapons should be pro-hibited
by international agree-ment?
The discussion question is:
How can we improve our relations
with South America ?
According to Mr. Smith there
will be an oratory contest at
Bethel this fall. The topic for ora-tion
will be, "Can Nuclear Wea-pons
Prevent War ?" There will
be a $25 prize given for the best
oration. Mr. Smith said that the
speech should be from 5 to 7 min-utes
in length and that either side
may be taken.
Ya Don't Say
Once upon a time there was a
man who sold hot dogs. The hot
dogs he sold were very good and
he would stand by the side of
the road and call out, "Buy a
hot dog, mister ?"
And the people bought.
The man put up signs along
the road telling of the good hot
dogs he was selling. The man
had to buy a big new stove to
handle the increasing business.
Finally he called his son to come
and help him sell his hot dogs.
When the man's son came to
work he saw how his father
sold hot dogs and he was amaz-ed.
"Dad," he said, "Don't you
realize there is a great depres-sion
upon us ?"
"The world situation is terri-ble,
the domestic scene is hope-less,
and business is just awful !"
Now, the man had been so
busy selling hot dogs that he
hadn't been listening to the
radio or reading the newspapers.
But when he heard what his son
had said, he thought he had bet-ter
start keeping up with the
news.
And he found out his son was
right, so he took down his signs
and no longer bothered to stand
by the side of the road and call
out, "Buy a hot dog, Mister ?"
His business fell off and he
sent back the new stove he had
bought. His business became less
and less, and the man turned to
his son and said, "You were
right son. We are in the middle
of a great depression."
Coketails will be served in Ed-gren
lounge Friday, Sept. 26, Stu
Luckman, social council chairman
announced.
This will replace the upperclass-men
variety originally scheduled
for this date and cancelled because
the football team is leaving for
Watertown, Wis. the day before,
for the Northwestern game.
Other fall events on the social
calendar include the banquet and
mixers.
Jerome Thompson, former foot-ball
all-American at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin, will speak at
the fall banquet Oct. 3.
Although confirmation has not
been received yet, Biltmore Inn
will probably be the site. The ban-quet
will be semi-formal.
Mixers will follow the Oct. 4
and 11 games with North Park
and Mason City. Stu said the mixer
after the Mason City game will
be a bermuda mixer.
The social council this year hopes
that attendance at social events
will approve this year, Stu added.
If the proposed budget is ap-proved
by the Student Senate the
social council will be enabled to
assume greater financial responsi-bility
for social events. In previous
years the major portion of the
cost was met by ticket sales.
